Southwestern Shrimp - Whole Grain Gourmet

What's this all about?

We love whole grains! We have found that we prefer their flavor. They are also far healthier than the refined foods which characterize the typical modern diet.

Switching to whole grains helps maintain a low glycemic diet. That means you will have more sustainable energy levels throughout the day, and probably fewer problems with weight control.

We created this website with one goal: to build an online community of like-minded people who either share our enthusiasm about whole grains or just want to learn more about them.

Lebanese tabouli

This is a quick and yummy way to prepare shrimp. It pairs really well with our Lebanese Tabouli.

So can I post healthy recipes that don't involve whole grains?

I posted this recipe because it pairs really well with the Lebanese Tabouli recipe on this site. It is referenced at the top of this page. To more directly address your question... while the primary theme of this site is whole grains, feel free to contribute any recipe that generally conforms to what I like to think of as 'mindful eating'. That is especially true if the recipe is complimentary to a whole grain dish. Thanks for the question, Vicki!
